Who We Are

With a growing population, a skilled labour force and an educated community, Elgin County provides an ideal environment for business.

Elgin County is a young, progressive and growing community that has long been attractive to families, as well as empty-nesters and retirees. The population is dispersed throughout the County, with residents enjoying the agrarian lifestyle in towns, villages and the picturesque countryside of the area.

Employment will continue to grow as Elgin County welcomes new transportation and warehousing operations, construction companies, accommodations, and food services to the area. St. Thomas and London are a short commute away, providing further employment opportunities to County residents.

The following data includes St. Thomas as it is part of both the Census Division, as well as part of the economic region.
